TJCS Leaders Meet with Nagoya City Officials

On February 28, 2025, the Tokai Japan Canada Society (TJCS) visited Nagoya City Hall and had the honour of meeting with Mayor Ichiro Hirosawa of Nagoya.


The meeting was held in a warm and friendly atmosphere, where we exchanged views on further strengthening Japan-Canada relations.


We met in the VIP room of Nagoya City Hall, where the Director-General, the Director of the Bureau of Tourism, Culture, and Exchange, and the Director of the International Relations Division were present.

Meeting in an ornate room; multiple people seated at tables, discussing. Japanese flag present.

Representing TJCS were President Shoji Amano, Former President Takashi Yamamoto, and Executive Assistant Aki Takahashi.


During this visit, Mayor Hirosawa graciously accepted the role of "Special Advisor" to TJCS.


Following his predecessor, he will continue to support TJCS in its mission to promote Japan-Canada exchange.
